Your 2D Echo shows:
• Left Atrium (LA) = 44 mm → mildly enlarged (previously 33 → now increased)
• Mild concentric LVH → thickening of heart muscle
• LVEF 60% → normal pumping function
• Grade I diastolic dysfunction → early relaxation abnormality
Next Steps
• Check and monitor:
– Blood pressure (very important)
– Fasting sugar, HbA1c
– Lipid profile
• Consult cardiologist / physician for:
– BP optimization (if elevated)
– Consider starting medication if required
• Repeat Echo after 6–12 months to monitor LA size progression
Health Tips
• Weight reduction is crucial (BMI currently high) → target gradual loss
• Daily 30–40 min brisk walking
• Reduce salt intake (important if BP borderline/high)
• Avoid smoking/alcohol (if applicable)
• Good sleep—screen for snoring/OSA if overweight
⚠️ Red flags:
• Breathlessness, palpitations, reduced exercise tolerance
